    AOC is solid.  Yoho should be forced to resign...that the GOP is relatively silent isn't surprising.
    Forced to resign?  hmmm, cancel culture back at it again.  NO wonder we can never have any real discussions.  

    1) Statement made
    2) Anti-statement people calling for firing
    3) Pro-statement people defending and ignoring the potential issues of said statement
    4) Statement maker is either fired or apologizes...no discussion to be had.
    5) Lather, rinse, repeat
    You want to have a discussion with someone who wags their finger in your face and calls you a “fucking bitch,” and then doesn’t apologize? Fired? The dick was elected and will probably get re-elected. Remember Arizona Governor Jan Brewer wagging her finger in Obama’s face? Imagine a dem doing that to Team Trump Treason. Yea, I’d be eager to have a “discussion” with these deplorables.
    Yup, I do.  It certainly might not go anywhere, but the first thought of "resigning", "firing", etc. is such bullshit.

    You’re canceled. No name calling. 
    I bet he wouldn't call a woman a "dick" either.  Sexist.  You're fired unless you resign.

    Modern day public executions. We've evolved so far from stockades, guillotines and gallows.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    He never said it to her face. Even she corrected that piece of the initial story. Doesn't make it ok, but it was a Hill reporter who heard his comment as she walked away. Ever swore under your breath after a heated exchange with someone? His speech trying to justify it afterwards was shit, but he didn't say it to her.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Her speech did highlight major concern on mine with her thoughts and beliefs. She said she goes to work in Congress to make sure her constituents have a roof over their heads.  Government providing.  Everything.  

    I would hope that all elected officials are toward every constituent having a roof over their head, clean and safe water, accessible health care, safe schools, and the rest of what makes a decent society. That's not the same thing as "government providing everything".

    Was the way he spoke to AOC not being a dick? Like describing a Team Trump Treason supporter a Deplorable, how would you describe Yoho’s behavior?

    I’d love for anyone here to be overheard by an HR rep calling a female colleague of color a “fucking bitch” whether under their breath or not, and to hear about the “discussion” that ensued.

    He's a dick, let's move on.

    EDIT:L I noticed you added POC to that.  Who cares if she is purple.  It shouldn't matter.

    Dude I couldn’t care less. But what does her being a POC have to do with anything? I doubt you’d give two shits if someone called Kayleigh Mcenany a bitch. Right?

    Because I wonder if she were white if he would have called her a “fucking bitch.” What do you think? Think he’s ever called his wife or daughter a “fucking bitch” after a heated argument. Wrong, I wouldn’t want anyone to call Kayleigh McEnany a “fucking bitch.” Are you okay with it? Think any repub white women members of Congress have been called “fucking bitch” by dem male reps, of any color?

    Or a work colleague at work, from someone who holds office. We all should expect better. How low has the bar become?

    The guy is a total dirtbag.

Wrong, I wouldn’t want anyone to call Kayleigh McEnany a “fucking bitch.” Are you okay with it? Think any repub white women members of Congress have been called “fucking bitch” by dem male reps, of any color?
    I’m not ok with anyone calling anyone a fuckin bitch. But I’d be lying if I said I never did it while stuck behind someone going 45 mph in the left lane. And to your last question, yes I do. Maybe not to their face though. 
    Or a work colleague at work, from someone who holds office. We all should expect better. How low has the bar become?

    The guy is a total dirtbag.
    Certainly a poor decision.

    Her speech did highlight major concern on mine with her thoughts and beliefs. She said she goes to work in Congress to make sure her constituents have a roof over their heads.  Government providing.  Everything.  

    I would hope that all elected officials are toward every constituent having a roof over their head, clean and safe water, accessible health care, safe schools, and the rest of what makes a decent society. That's not the same thing as "government providing everything".
    It's all in how you feel you need to go about it. 
    Sure. Did she give details in how she’s going about it in the speech that concerned you? 
    Not in that speech.  But are you trying to argue I can't disagree with her well known platform?

    No. You said "that speech did highlight major concern on mine with her thoughts and beliefs", so I was wondering what it was about "that speech" that highlighted your concern. Simply stating that she wants her constituents to have a roof over their heads doesn't seem to warrant major concern.

    AOC is solid.  Yoho should be forced to resign...that the GOP is relatively silent isn't surprising.
    Forced to resign?  hmmm, cancel culture back at it again.  NO wonder we can never have any real discussions.  

    1) Statement made
    2) Anti-statement people calling for firing
    3) Pro-statement people defending and ignoring the potential issues of said statement
    4) Statement maker is either fired or apologizes...no discussion to be had.
    5) Lather, rinse, repeat
    You want to have a discussion with someone who wags their finger in your face and calls you a “fucking bitch,” and then doesn’t apologize? Fired? The dick was elected and will probably get re-elected. Remember Arizona Governor Jan Brewer wagging her finger in Obama’s face? Imagine a dem doing that to Team Trump Treason. Yea, I’d be eager to have a “discussion” with these deplorables.
    You’re canceled. No name calling. 
    Was the way he spoke to AOC not being a dick? Like describing a Team Trump Treason supporter a Deplorable, how would you describe Yoho’s behavior?

    I’d love for anyone here to be overheard by an HR rep calling a female colleague of color a “fucking bitch” whether under their breath or not, and to hear about the “discussion” that ensued.
    Dude I couldn’t care less. But what does her being a POC have to do with anything? I doubt you’d give two shits if someone called Kayleigh Mcenany a bitch. Right? 
    Is this false equivalency or whataboutism?....

    A little bit of both.
